Honestly? This is the only piece of evidence I've ever seen that genuinly links Shanks' to being a swordsman.
It's not headcanon, it's not theorizing, it's not speculation, it's just Oda drawing Shanks alongside other swordsmen.
This convinces me.
Yes I did. It's very wordy and very lengthy and that's very nice but it's ultimately not "Proof". It's not a panel where Shanks gets outright called a swordsman, it's just your own thoughts and opinions.
This however, is proof:
This is a draft for one of the colourspreads, it's made by Oda...
First of all, he has never done such thing, in fact the opposite is true where Oda has made a distincrion between Shanks and other True Swordsmen.
Second: Being a swordsman doesn't mean he has adhere at every point to the rules of swordsmanship. I could learn how to play football for fun but not...
That's absolutely not the argument though.
Once again, let's go back to King.
He is a person who uses a sword, and therefore can be called a swordsman, right? Well wrong because Zoro outright denies him that title, and calls him a Killing Machine instead.
Therefore we conclude that being a...
These two panels are one page apart so I don't know how you can miss it.
You can even see extra cracks that were created on the front face that weren't there before, those cracks imply the metal is being smashed.
If you wanna make the argument that ANYONE who makes shockwaves is not a...
Zoro v Monet.
A perfect vertical slash, cleanly cuts her in two.
Perfect Slash.
Zoro v Pica
Perfectly and cleanly cuts through a mountain horizontally.
Perfect Slash.
Mihawk in Marineford.
Cleanly slices a giant iceberg in two, not one single crack in an entire mountain.
Perfect Slash...
Oda answer: It doesn't matter.
Headcanon answer: Kaido is much much bigger so all those tiny slashes don't show, only the one that managed to slice through Kaido.
We don't know how Lunarian fire exactly works. If it only defends against physical attacks or internal/elemental attacks too.
Plus we know for a fact that Seraphim are cyborgs since they can shoot lasers just like Pacifista.
Therefore, yes it would make sense if a massive electrical attack...
Even assuming that the anime is canon, this is still consistent since it's a gag within a gag.
Sanji is being annoying and loud enough that even that can disturb Zoro's sleep, while a literal war exploding around him doesn't.
:kayneshrug:
I've already seen this garbage argument made a bunch of times in different threads so I'm just gonna put an end to it.
If you EVEN read One Piece you should already know that one of Zoro's gags is that he sleeps through everything.
This is literally one of the first things that happens in the...
If it's CoA then it explains why all top tiers don't have black blades, they just moved on to Advanced Conqueror's instead after discovering it was just an upgrade to armament.
Dunno how it hasn't been mentioned yet at all... But the entire point of having Zoro show...
Was so that he could later showcase...
Like, that was the entire point of the thing.
He learned a new technique from Kinemon, was slowly shown improving on it and growing during the battle, and...
Very simple and straightforward logic, well done. Couldn't be any easier to understand.
I wonder if people would consider Roger a Dai Kengou, even if he just swinged Haki around.
Is Big Mom a Dai Kengou too? I guess so, they must be if they were to be stronger than Vista.
